You have to wonder what they think they g(r)ain from using film and then

Film photography with classic cameras is, IMV, an altogether richer
experience than digital. I use both. Digital is great for snapping stuff
I'm selling on ebay, but if I'm feeling creative and want the challenge/
reward of doing something artistic, it *has* to be film. Most people
won't understand this line of thinking, but it's no different really from
the people who still insist on riding Harley-Davidsons despite their
obsolete, noisy and vibrational engines. "If I have to explain, you
wouldn't understand." And yes, I'm a Harley nut, too. :-D


I used to use nothing but film SLR and I don't see any upside in going back to it. Digital has been an improvement all round.
